After spending the better part of a year recovering from VII I'm enjoying VIII a lot more. Even if the story's not super complex or anything there's a tangible sense of progression to it whereas VII often felt like it was just spinning its wheels and the cheesy British voice acting falls on just the right side of charming.

It's Dragon Quest I'm referring to, not Final Fantasy. The upcoming Switch port will be my first opportunity to play Final Fantasy VII.

And for the record, I didn't think Dragon Quest VII was a bad game per se, just much too long in the tooth for how thin most of its plot and characters were. It just got a bit exhausting after a while.

So, I've been playing Atelier Escha & Logy for the past several days. Pretty decent game. I currently have over 11 hours so far. I'm doing Escha's route. Escha and the others are preparing to go into the ruins they keep mentioning in the game. Can't wait to see what will happens.

So, I currently have over 17 hours in Atelier Escha and Logy. It's a pretty cool game at the moment. I'm getting used to the routine I have to do and I like the interaction between the different characters. I can't wait to see what happens later on.

I have one question, though. There's this one boss called Frigate that I tried fighting and ended up losing to. Will not fighting and beating the boss lead to a bad ending or something? Just curious.

So, I'm approaching the end of Atelier Escha & Logy. It's been a quite an interesting game. I have a little over 24 hours so far. I've managed to use the materials I've gathered to build an airship to explore the unexplored ruins. I want to see how this all ends. I can't wait to finish it.

Thinking about things.

Currently checking out Another Eden since it's by Masato Kato and the Western version just came out

Apparently it doesn't have a lot of the annoying things that other mobile games have (like events being permanent so you don't have to drop progress in the main story and other things to do everything in the event as quickly as possible) which was another incentive to try it out

Anyone can recommend a good, free-to-play single-player RPG on Steam or elsewhere? I tried Legend of the Two Swords and it was Ok until I had to stop because the level-up system was just too complex for my taste.

I don't think it's gonna win game of the year or anything but KH fans like it, people who aren't really hardcore KH fans like it, and I haven't really heard much bad about it other than some little nitpicky things (and the fact that KH's story is nonsense, but that's nothing new.)

So, I just finished doing Mt. Zenom in Wild Arms. I have over 5 hours so far. I've been playing for the past couple of days. Honestly, that was one of the most frustrating dungeons I've done. I think this has made me hate random encounters even than I did before. Anyways, I managed to defeat the boss at the top of Mt. Zenom and I wasn't able to save the guardian that was located there. I'm currently back at Baskar village to make my next move.

Mitsuda: It has been almost twenty years since Chrono Cross was released on November 18, 1999. Since this is the year of Chrono Cross, I wanted to celebrate it with everyone by doing a live concert tour. The theme for the music in Chrono Cross was “radical traditional”. For Chrono Cross, I tried the best I could to create a new kind of video game music. All kinds of sounds were mixed together, from Balkan music to Celtic, Nordic, African and so on, making the music stateless and unique. This time, I’ll personally arrange all of the pieces played during the tour. I’m aiming for the type of setting where we can all laugh and dance together. It won’t be a concert where the audience sits and listens, but rather a standing concert where all the fans and musicians can share their energy and enjoy the music together. The live concert tour will happen in three places: Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya. I hope everyone can lose themselves in the music. Together with Serge, Schala ”Kid” Zeal and everyone, let’s set out in search of the “Frozen Flame”.
